"Bob and his gang were really great. They were reasonable, flexible, and easy to work with. They were able to accommodate each of my requests and the paint looks fantastic and was done in such a short period of time. Our whole house was preped, including wallpaper removal, and painted from top to bottom in less than a week. I am happy to recommend them."

"I always do my own painting, I've never hired a painter before. But I was putting off doing our master bedroom because it has huge cathedral ceilings and I didn't have the equipment to do those. Used Angie's List and got the name of Franklin Painting and called him for an estimate. Our bedroom is 16 ft x 21 ft - quite large. He gave me an estimate of $200 for the ceiling which I accepted, it came out great! So I got an estimate for the walls ($250) and trim (4 windows, a door, baseboard). He and his wife (a lovely woman, I liked her) came yesterday and did the painting. Again, a fabulous job. Quite impressed! Couldn't beat the price either. Hard-working, neat, arrived on time, did an excellent job. Highly recommended.

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

White walls are considered a classic and timeless look and will most likely always be in style. A white wall easily blends into any type of home decor style which makes it a suitable option for most homeowners. Another appealing quality about white walls is that if it's not a color someone is going for, the color is easy to paint over.

You’ll need to wash the walls to remove wallpaper adhesive residue after removal as part of the prep process for painting or rehanging wallpaper. Old adhesive can cause texture issues and prevent paint or wallpaper from adhering properly to the wall’s surface.

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

Wallpaper in bathrooms can last anywhere from one to 10 years, depending on what type was used, how well it was installed, and the measures in place to reduce moisture and humidity levels. Opting for a more durable variety and taking all the necessary protective measures will get you closer to that longer lifespan.
